In the blog I describe my visits to these cemeteries. Some were just quick stops where I just drove into the cemetery, took photos and studied the overall design of the cemetery and the size. I did not get too specific because I did not have time.

The cemeteries that were of major importance to me I lingered and described my experience in more detail. I did not show all my photos on the blog posts because I was traveling and that would take a great amount of time. So I have uploaded to my public Picasa Web Albums more photos of these cemeteries.
I have not placed any restrictions on the photos but I do ask that you give me credit if you find something of interest.

UPDATE 7/10/2012: Apparently I have to embed each web album into the blog post. This would take a great deal of time. So I suggest that search for various cemeteries via the Massachusetts Meanderings Blog categories and search box. At some point I will link these cemeteries photos, but they will be linked on the Solomon Goss Blog when I get to discussing that cemetery.

As for burial listings for various cemeteries I found Find A Grave helpful but not always complete. I sourced books that I had on these cemeteries for more research in the various posts on the particular cemeteries. On the right of the blog are links that can be very helpful so check them out.

Things to Ponder!

The header photo is of the Lee Cemetery in Hardin Co., Ohio southeast of Kenton, Ohio.

As of today 8/12/2016 Google has closed down Picasa for Photos. They moved them to Google Photos and Google Photo Archive. If there are any problem with my photos from this blog give me a holler and I will check it out. When posting in Blogger the photos went into Picasa for safekeeping it doesn't work that way at Wordpress. I did not move BJM Cemeteries to Wordpress so this is why I am concerned. So far so Good. Thanks. Let me know if there is a problem with any of the photos. Thanks.

As a member of Find A Grave I have been adding photos and memorials and getting some transferred to me and trying to spend a couple hours each week adding to the website. Scroll to the bottom of this blog and you will find a link to my contributions on Find A Grave.

Here are my tips:

I find Find A Grave is really good for finding tombstones and memorials for those buried in the USA. Canada is making progress in adding to Find A Grave but you also have to go to other websites in your search. These websites are the Canadian Headstones.com, OCFA - Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid, the Canadian Gen Webs Cemetery project are few places to look. Each province may have a way to locate cemeteries. Hopefully I have identified these websites in my posts but be aware they do change their urls.
